Wishes and Lies

Burn the evidence
Hide the lies
Deceive these truths
That rise from inside
-
Get rid, get rid
Destroy this proof
Make it leave
Destroy this truth
-
I don't want to hide
Don't want to lie
All this effort
Just to be sly
-
Madness passes
I feel ashamed
Hurt to be this bad
This thing I inflamed
-
Crawl to the mirror
Look at my face
Eyes that betray
The truth in this case
-
Shame at these efforts
Wish they could be
Somewhere else
To some better degree
-
I try so hard
So hide these lies
Something betrayed
Just by a look at my eyes
-
Avert my face
Deal with the pain
Know I'll be back
To do the same again
